The masses of the two moons are determined to be 2M2M for Moon AA and MM for Moon BB . It is observed that the distance between

Moon BB and the planet is two times that of the distance between Moon AA and the planet. How does force exerted from the planet on Moon AA compare to the force exerted from the planet on Moon BB

Answer:

 F_A = 8 F_B

Explanation:

The force exerted by the planet on each moon is given by the law of universal gravitation

        F = G \frac{m M}{r^{2} }

where M is the mass of the planet, m the mass of the moon and r the distance between its centers

let's apply this equation to our case

Moon A

the distance between the planet and the moon A is r and the mass of the moon is 2m

        F_A = G \frac{2m M}{r^{2} }

Moon B

        F_B = G \frac{m M}{(2r)^{2} }

         F_B = G \frac{m M}{4 r^{2} }

the relationship between these forces is

         F_B / F_A = \frac{1}{2 \ 4 } = 1/8

         F_A = 8 F_B

where M is the mass of the planet, m the mass of the moon and r the distance between its centers

        F_B = G \frac{m M}{4 r^{2} }

the relationship between these forces is

        F_B / F_A =  = 1/8

        F_A = 8 F_B

Un campo eléctrico es creado por una carga eléctrica de 5 microcoulomb, a 35 cm se coloca una carga de prueba la cual es atraída
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Supongo que queremos determinar la carga de la carga de prueba.

Sabemos que la fuerza culombiana entre dos cargas q₁ y q₂, separadas por una distancia R, está dada por:

F = k_c*\frac{|q_1*q_2|}{R^2}

Aislandolo para una de las cargas, obtenemos:

\frac{F*R^2}{kc*|q_1|} =|q_2|

En este caso sabemos:

fuerza atractiva, por lo que los signos de las cargas son opuestos.

q₁  = 5 mC

R = 35cm

F = 1.5 N

Kc = 9*10^9 N*m^2/C^2

Un primer paso, seria reescribir todos los valores en las mismas unidades.

Sabiendo que:

100cm = 1m

R = 35cm = (35/100) m = 0.35m

Y sabiendo que:

1mc = 1*10^(-6) C

Entonces:

q₁  = 5 mC = 5*1*10^(-6) C = 5*10^(-6) C

Ahora podemos reemplazar esos valores en la ecuación de la fuerza, para obtener el valor de la otra carga:

\frac{15N*(0.35m)^2}{(9*10^9 N*m^2/C^2)*5*10^{-6}C} =|q_2| = 4.08*10^{-5} C

Y recordar que las cargas tienen signo opuesto, entonces la carga de la carga de prueba es:

q₂ = -4.08*10^-5 C

1)A plastic rod is rubbed against a wool shirt, thereby acquiring a charge of -0.7 µC. How many electrons are transferred from t
ratelena [41]

Answer:

electrons are transferred from the wool shirt to the plastic rod is  4.375 × 10^{12} electrons

Explanation:

given data

Amount of charge transferred Q = -0.7 μC  = -0.7 × 10^{-6} C

electrons of charge e = -1.6 × 10^{-19} C

solution

we apply formula here for  total charge of electrons that is

Q = n × e   ...................2

here n is no of electron that is

n = \frac{Q}{e}    

put here value

n = \frac{-0.7*10^{-6}}{-1.6*10^{-19}}  

n = 4.375 × 10^{12} electrons

so here electrons are transferred from the wool shirt to the plastic rod is  4.375 × 10^{12} electrons

What is the rate of change of position in which the same distance is traveled each second ?
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

The rate of change of position in which the same distance is traveled each second is called uniform velocity.

Explanation:

  • When there is a change in the position coordinate of an object with respect to time, it is has a velocity associated with it.
  • Similarly, when there is a change in the velocity component of the object with respect to the time, there is an acceleration associated with it.
  • When the rate of change of position in which the same distance is traveled each second, the object is said to be in uniform velocity. Therefore,  there is no acceleration acting on the object.
  • Since there is no acceleration acting on the object, the net force on the object is zero.
